That’s possible, I’m using Firefox, is that something firefox would do?

The site does use https for me… it instantly redirects from http to https

My point is, since its meaning depends on the context, I don’t see the issue for it to mean, in the context of containers, “outside of a container”. Just like in the case of VMs, or OS vs No OS, it means there’s one fewer layer between the app and the hardware, whether that’s a VM, Container runtime, or the OS.

I’m pretty sure everybody, including you, understood its meaning in this context, it didn’t really cause any misunderstanding.

That’s only the meaning you’re used to, and that’s my point. It depends on the context. I can assure you that, in the context of microcontrollers, for example, “bare metal” means running without an OS.

Well, since we want to be technical … Docker is not bare metal. Linux apps are not bare metal. Arduino is bare metal.

I still run it on a 10 year old chromebox (replacing chrome with linux of course). It’s really not that heavy. If it seems very slow, I’d try rebuilding the database from a dump (if mysql/mariadb), and making sure the db is on a fast drive. At least, those two things made a huge difference for me. Also, some people reported huge speedups switching to postgres.

Thanks for the detailed response, I’ll have to double-check some of these. It seemed strange to me that everybody called her a transphobe based just on that tweet I remembered, and on a statement she put on her website that didn’t seem that transphobic to me, but if all you say is true, then yeah, she definitely is.

so it’s crazy to me that JKR is now liking and retweeting statements from nationalists and the far right.

Is she though? Do you have a link? I really want to get clarity in this whole JKR situation. The only thing I remember is her tweeting something of the like “we used to have a word for ‘people who menstruate’ in the English language, what was it?” which I can see how it can sound transphobic, but all it’s really saying is that since the word “woman” now includes trans women, the English language now lacks a word for people being born female. She later said she is not tranphobic, and has (had?) many trans friends, but do think trans women are not the same as cis women, which doesn’t really seem all that transphobic to me, so maybe I missed something else she said.

Based on the above, and the fact that all her books are pretty woke, as you say, I always assumed it was a bad misunderstanding, but I’d really want to see if she doubled down on some objectionable view.

Nice! … how exactly, I wanna know :)

I have my nextcloud server exposed, I keep it up to date, patched, etc. but I’d love to use the extra protection of a VPN. Just … I don’t think mobile apps work very well with that, unless I keep my phone constantly connected to the VPN, right? Or is there a smart way to do that?

I don’t think you’re out of touch, just use docker compose. It’s not that hard to conver the docker run example command line into a neat docker-compose.yml, if they don’t already provide one for you. So much better than just running containers manually.

Also, you should always understand what any command or docker compose file does before you run it! And don’t blindly curl | bash either, download the bash script and look at it first.
